Extended storage fuse switch
To re�fuce battery �frain, the exten�fe�f storage
fuse switch comes from the factory switche�f off.
Prior to �feli�bery of your �behicle, the switch is
pushe�f in (switche�f on) an�f shoul�f always
remain on.
If any electrical equipment �foes not operate,
remo�be the exten�fe�f storage fuse switch an�f check for an open fuse.
NOTE:
If the extended storage fuse switch mal-
functions, or if the fuse is open, it is not
necessary to replace the switch. In this
case, remove the extended storage fuse
switch and replace it with a new fuse of the
same rating.

If you have a flat tire, see the following
section. (“Flat tire” page 6-3)
CAUTION
A GT-R certified NISSAN dealer should
perform a tire change. It will be neces-
sary to reset the tire pressure sensors.
To change the tires, contact a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer.
Be sure to use the tires and wheels together as
a set that are designated �for use with this
vehicle.
�bhen tire replacement is required, replacing the
tires as a set o�f �four with new tires is
recommended. However, i�f a tire is punctured
or damaged, it may be possible to replace only
the damaged tire. Determining whether one tire
or a complete set o�f tires should be replaced is
based on a number o�f �factors including tire wear
and condition. Contact your GT-R certi�fied
NISSAN dealer. They can recommend i�f an
individual tire or a complete set should be
replaced.
NOTICE
Make sure the tire valve stem cap is
installed and that the valve stem is
tight. When installing the cap, make
sure to tighten the cap by hand. If a tool
is used to tighten the cap, the cap may
be damaged.
TIRE PRESSURE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
This vehicle is equipped with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) . It monitors tire
pressure o�f all tires. �bhen the low tire pressure
warning light is lit, one or more o�f your tires is
signi�ficantly under-in�flated. The system also
displays pressure o�f all tires on the multi �function
display by sending a signal �from a sensor that is
installed in each wheel.
The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) .
Also, this system may not detect a sudden drop
in tire pressure. (
“Low tire pressure warn-
ing light” page 2-27) (“Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” page 5-4)
(
“Flat tire” page 6-3)
Tire inflation pressure
Check the tire pressure o�ften and always
prior to long distance trips. The recom-
mended tire pressure speci�fications are
shown on the F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. label
or the Tire and Loading In�formation label (i�f
so equipped) under the “Cold Tire Pres-
sure” heading. The Tire and Loading
In�formation label is a�f�fixed to the driver
side door end. Tire pressures should be
checked regularly because:
.Most tires naturally lose air over time.
.Tires can lose air suddenly when driven
over potholes or other objects or i�f the
vehicle strikes a curb while parking.
NOTE:
. You can check the pressure of all four
tires on the multi function display. See
the separate Multi Function Display
Owner’s Manual.
. The tires of this vehicle are filled with
nitrogen gas. When the tire pressure is
low, fill the tires with nitrogen. Contact
a GT-R certified NISSAN dealer for
information on filling the tires with
nitrogen.
WHEELS AND TIRES

.If nitrogen is not available, compressed
air may be safely used under normal
driving conditions. However, NISSAN
recommends refilling with nitrogen for
maximum tire performance.
The tire pressures should be checked
when the tires are cold. The tires are
considered \fOLD a\bter the vehicle has
been parked \bor 3 or more hours, or driven
less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at moderate
speeds.
Incorrect tire pressure, including un-
der inflation, may adversely affect tire
life and vehicle handling.
WARNING
.Improperly inflated tires can fail
suddenly and cause an accident.
.The Gross Vehicle Weight rating
(GVWR) is located on the F.M.V.
S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certification la-
bel. The vehicle weight capacity
is indicated on the Tire and
Loading Information label (if so
equipped) . Do not load your vehicle beyond this capacity.
Overloading your vehicle may
result in reduced tire life, unsafe
operating conditions due to pre-
mature tire failure, or unfavor-
able handling characteristics
and could also lead to a serious
accident. Loading beyond the
specified capacity may also re-
sult in failure of other vehicle
components.
.Before taking a long trip, or
whenever you heavily load your
vehicle, use a tire pressure
gauge to ensure that the tire
pressures are at the specified
level.
.For additional information re-
garding tires, refer to “Important
Tire Safety Information” (US) or
“Tire Safety Information” (Cana-
da) in the Warranty Information
Booklet.
NOTE:
.
Use only genuine GT-R tires and road
wheels.
The GT-R uses specially designed run-
flat tires and matching road wheels.
Use of these specially developed tires
and wheels provides the greatest po-
tential for maximum performance.
—Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help achieve maximum cornering
and braking performance.
— Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help achieve maximum tire durabil-
ity during acceleration.
— Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help achieve maximum handling
capability during performance driv-
ing.
— Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help provide road holding in the
event of decreasing tire pressure
and punctures.
— Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help prevent the decrease of
straight-running stability caused by
uneven tire wear due to high rigidity
wheels and wide tires.
